Car Talk › Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by inze(m): 6:39am On Sep 30, 2015 |
KolaShangOne: Good morning people.. This thought has kept me awake.. I
I bought a Honda EOD '03 last week and I duly took the car for a scan at @Gazzuzz's workshop and I got codes (P0113, P0135, P0141, P0117, p 0118, p2195). I also got a list of things to change n all..
Yesterday, I was returning to base (pending d time I will get cash for the repairs) and was driving on the Lagos - Ibadan expressway. I noticed that the car SLIPS. Once I drive for about 15-20mins, the car throttle suddenly fails. The car revs but there's no increase in speed. If I pump the throttle, the car suddenly jerks, moves forward a bit, the brakes harden and it stops.
I have to open the bonnet, wait another 15mins for it to cool before driving another 15-20mins. It was a hellish journey.
My experienced Uncle said the gear is bad and needs replacing. That will be pocket draining. I need another angle.
Before I left for the journey, I gave a local guy the keys while I went to do something else. (That's a mistake not to be present). He told me he drained Transmission fluid because it was too much. . . . like the poster above me has said, the 'local guy' has done more harm than good. Why reduce the quantity of fluid in the transmission? Was it topped or changed? and if yes, with what? |

Romance › Re: Why Don't We See Rich Nigerian Single Ladies Marry Not-so-rich Nigerian Guys? by inze(m): 10:39pm On Sep 27, 2015 |
humilitypays: Some days ago, I and a friend who recently returned from abroad were gisting about life, and one thing led to another, we ended up discussing Nigerian issues like- insecurity in the northeastern Nigeria, abnormal increase in graduate unemployment, politics, and of course romance; basically the rate at which true love is fading away in Nigeria of our time.
It was at this point that my friend started telling me stories of how Nigerian ladies abroad (especially those living in US and UK according to him) play hard-to-get and difficult for Nigerian guys living abroad, especially if they discover that the guy isn't from a wealthy family back in Nigeria.
He revealed to me that many Nigerian guys living in US and Uk would love to marry Nigerian ladies living there, but that the problem is that Nigerian ladies don't always make it easy for Naija guys living there with them to approach them and that most of the Naija ladies there usually flock around a Nigerian guy there if they notice that the guy is from a wealthy Nigerian family or at worst, studying medicine or working as a doctor there. He also mentioned that he has observed that Nigerian ladies who come from wealthy family backgrounds or those who worked hard to become rich themselves will never agree to date or marry a Nigerian guy who isn't richer than them or popular; that's a celebrity.
His statement shocked me because exactly what he said was also my thought having observed things here in Nigeria for some time now, and some months ago, I also overheard a group of guys discussing same thing at a gathering I went to.
Now, I want to throw this question open to Nigerian ladies of all social status, since nairaland is a popular forum where people of all class visit...please no insults, I just want to hear your opinion.
Why don't we see more of rich single Nigerian ladies date or marry not-so-rich Nigerian guys? Is it a crime or does it mean Nigerian ladies only develop love when they see or smell wealth and success?
At least, we have witnessed or heard of several cases of wealthy Nigerian guys date and marry poor Nigerian girls from poor families who don't even have a job, but on the other hand, we rarely hear or see rich Nigerian single ladies date or marry not-so-rich Nigerian guys; I am not even talking of dating or marrying broke guys, I mean guys who aren't that rich or popular.
Before anyone come calling for my head, please kindly sit back and observe things in your area of residence; you will notice that we now have plenty number of Nigerian single ladies working in big companies and earning fat salaries, some are born into wealth, some have become rich doing business, yet these ladies are single probably waiting for a rich or richer guy to come ask them out and marry them, hence making it difficult for them to find husband.
But in other countries of Africa, Europe, Asia, and Americas, rich ladies date and marry broke and not-so-rich guys without issues, but is seems to be different in Nigeria, why pls
What then is the need of fighting for feminism and gender-equality if NIgerian ladies can't embrace the changes that comes with gender equality/feminism?
Let me give some examples:
Linda Ikeji, Genevieve Nnajia, Rita Domnic, Funke Akindele, Tonto Dikeh, Kate Henshaw, etc
Believe it or not, Linda Ikeji wants to marry, but she's probably waiting for one rich guy or son of a former minister, governor, MD, etc to settle down with.....same with Genevieve Nnaji, Rita Domnic, Funke Akindele, and so many others that are not that popular but rich or come from rich family background.
Does it mean that rich Nigerian guys dating and marrying poor or not-so-rich Nigerian girls are fools
At least Marriah Carey married poor Nick Cannon...and many of such cases abound in western countries, but rarely happen in Nigeria, why? Something is wrong somewhere, can someone please explain.
Note: I am not saying its a crime for a lady to date or marry rich guy, neither am I saying that a lady must date/marry broke guy, I am just curious as to why it is rare to hear that a rich single Nigerian lady is dating or married to a guy who isn't rich? . . . because 'gold-digger' has become synonymous when a young hustling guy is seen around, talk-less of marrying a super/mega rich lady or one from a wealthy background |

obitee69: Very funny guy. Mayb I forgot to tighten the radiator cap cos when I opened the hood. I found it were the battery is. . . . maybe that's where the problem is or maybe not. What made you open the radiator cap in the first place? Anyway, that's medicine after death but For now, open the hood to allow air flow into the engine. When the vehicle is cool, tighten the radiator cap properly and give it a go once again.
These are more maybe the reason for your vehicle overheat, have it checked if you find any of the following culprit:
- radiator leaking - radiator is clogged - thermostat stuck or missing - one or both of your fan not working

Car Talk › Re: Second Engine In 2 Months by inze(m): 8:22pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
lantres000: Good Afternoon Gents
Please help me solve this equation.
Some two Months Ago my engine was smoking, and my mech told me that the engine is gone so i paid out cash to him to get a tokunbo Engine, which he fixed and then i went driving once more.
Ever since that engine was fixed its one wahala to another until finally the car left me @ 3rd Mainland Bridge and i was able to get it towed to my mechs workshop.
On diagnosis it was discovered that the new Engine was smoking and he declared it Knocked(2 months old Engine)
From no where he came up with a scam that exhaust catalyst was blocked and that was knocked the first engine and then the second. Right in front of me he cut the exhaust and behold the catalyst was blocked.
Gents please help me judge this matter:
1 Could it be he sold a scam engine to me
2 or could it be his theory of blocked pot was responsible for the engine damage?
Thanks . . . how did you and your mechanic arrive at the conclusion that the exhaust catalyst was blocked? |

At that point, 10million sweet, but e better to walk away wit what u have already. in otherwords, i advice you stick to which you understand very well |

stechi: Just got this ML320 and after respraying the part that got some scratches when moving it out from the container, my mechanic just called me complaining about the vehicle overheating and the need to remove the thermostat and connect the fan directly. I still feel there is need to leave the thermostat in the vehicle, kindly advice on what decision to take because I don't want to regret using this vehicle once registered. Also where can I get its original brake pads (and for how much) because I felt the pads are near to being metals.
Gurus in the house please help a brother....  . . . what needs to be 'removed' here is your mechanic and not the thermostat. Find a competent mechanic who will check if you have bubble in your engine coolant or should provide you with proper diagnosis as to the engine overheat.
if you are in Lagos, you can contact Gazzuzz |

princetom1: Upper week, i explained how UBA charge me 252.5 to a dollar back in July, on that transaction, of 210 usd i lost like #11,500. I didn't even bother to call them, i just reason with d explanation they will give me if i complain to them, but after coming here and reading about u guys views and how the charges really were, i gave them a call and tgey start sprutting in tongues, didn't even bother, i just asked to be transfered to a team leader or a supervisor. The supervisor said same story, but she must have sensed that i understand what i was talking about and the treat to be real. They gave me a call back and asked me to send the message i got from PayPal , which i did. After 2 days, i didn't get any contact from them, i decided to call back, but the supervisors and team leader were in a meeting, so the agent asked if he can call me back wen they are through. To cut d storey short, i didn't get a call back for more 10 hours, but what i got back was an alert, of my whole money refunded to me in full, not even 1 kobo deducted. After, i got a call from one of their supervisor, to confirm if all is now in order. While this was going on, i took note of some things, (1) The junior staffs knows very little about these, always ask to be transfer to a supervisor if available, (2) Stand on ur ground and know all dates and figures of ur transaction (3) If one agent told u he/she cant help u, always call back (4) And always ask of the names of the people u speak with, and write it down. From these now, i have contact to 2 of their supervisor, a lady and a guy. In fact, after getting text alert, and they called me after then, i told them to call me back later that am busy. Of course the did. So, thank u guys a lot, i join nairaland just a few month back and i already can see d benefit. CC: seun, ymodulus, alakara, tumababa . . . i like the sound of this |
